Tulocay
Cemetery is celebrating 143 years of serving the community, and looking foward to the 21st
Century.

The discovery of gold in California was just ten
years in the past when the cemetery was founded in 1859. The fledgling city of Napa was
nestled on the west side of the Napa River, and Don Cayetano Juarez's Rancho Tulocay
stretched along the eastern river bank. The cemetery is located on land which he donated.

Peter Manasse became cemetery manager in 1993 after serving
on the board for 22 years. At that time he said, "we want to make this one of the
nicest cemeteries in Northern California." Nine years later, extensive renovation and
replanting have turned the cemetery into a garden spot for visitors who are encouraged to
stop by.
